About Us - Shore Excursion Scotland
At Shore Excursion Scotland, we bring a fresh perspective to shore excursions in Scotland, offering cruise passengers a more personal and in-depth way to explore our country. Unlike the large-coach tours sold by the cruise lines, our small-group shore excursions focus on comfort, flexibility, and authenticity. Travelling in smaller vehicles allows us to reach hidden gems, scenic routes, and charming villages that bigger tours simply can’t access.
Operating as a trusted shore excursion agency, we work exclusively with local transport providers and experienced Scottish tour guides who share our passion for history, culture, and natural beauty. Whether you join us from Greenock (Glasgow), Invergordon (Inverness), or Edinburgh’s ports—South Queensferry, Newhaven, Leith, or Rosyth—you’ll enjoy a seamless, professionally organised experience designed around your ship’s schedule.
Each Scotland cruise excursion is thoughtfully crafted to showcase the very best of our landscapes and landmarks. Tours typically last around eight hours, include convenient port pick-up and drop-off, and are backed by our Shore Excursion Guarantee, giving you total peace of mind.
Join us ashore and discover Scotland beyond the typical tourist routes—combining expert local guidance, breathtaking scenery, and an insider’s view of one of the world’s most captivating destinations.
